1. Have you encountered failure in attaining your goal? How did you
overcome it?
Trial is already a part of our lives. Every day there is a test to face. How can you
achieve something you dream of if you are afraid to face the test? How can you learn
and get up on all fours if you do not know how to solve the problem? Sometimes,
failures are God’s way of testing us, if it is still Him we are running to if we encounter
failures on our way on achieving our goals.
Yes, I have encountered failures, many times. I always locked myself up in my room
and cry and cry until there is no left tears to cry. And then I would pray to God to give
me strength to stand up on my own feet again, to give me courage to face new trials
and failures on my way on achieving my goals. I always put in my mind that it is not me
alone who encountered failures. I always encourage myself to continue, to stand up firm
despite the bruises I have. Before you achieve something and succeed, you must
encounter countless failures first. And this is my motto in life “If others can do it, think
that you can do it too.” to inspire me to continue.
Therefore, I do believe that every failure I have encountered, I will receive a reward.
It may be hard to stand up but by His help, I will surely continue to achieve my goal. I
trust myself and the Creator that He will guide me wherever I go and whatever I do.
Always put in mind that there is always a light in the end of a tunnel.
